Post Abortion Stress and Symptoms

Post Abortion Stress and Symptoms. Abortion affects everyone differently, but you’re not alone in your thoughts and feelings. It is not uncommon for post-abortive women to experience:

• Guilt or regret
• Feelings of low self-worth
• Crying spells
• Flashbacks or nightmares
• Depression or hopelessness
• Feelings of unforgiveness

These post-abortion symptoms are sometimes known as post abortion syndrome. If you are experiencing post abortion grief or similar emotions after an abortion, you don’t have to process it all by yourself. We’ve been where you are, and we can walk with you to freedom.
